Question about quick horse starts in longer races
Im assuming everyone has liked or bet a horse at one time or another that ran fractions early on that would seal its own fate. Usually these horses are all alone on the lead early by several lengths and a natural reaction would be WTF is the jockey doing ? It seems to happen a lot in longer races and I was wondering if that mostly has to do with a horses running style or some type of strategy? Don’t get me wrong I have seen horses win this way but it’s very rare. Also does anyone know if there is a pattern to a horse running this way and then cut back in distance the next race ?
